We can always cut across at Blakesley, through Towcester and out on the A5 for a little bit before going up the Stoke Bruerne - less miles in the same time = lower average. Lets talk in the morning - JohnC may well also have a cunning plan

Hi Lucy - it’s John’s if he want’s it - I got keen and jumped the gun
I don’t have a contact number for him - but sure we can sort it out in the morning

Anyone seeing the ‘I’m attending’ button?
Or do I not see it as I created the event?

You have my attention - definitely motivated by seeing all the Brum photos (one of my clients was 6th fastest)

Bike's fixed, I'll be there

Hello Wheelers,
Just had an email form Corleys in MK - thought it might be interesting for anyone fed up with their Garmin. I’ll leave it to individuals to register.

Please book onto the ride in a two stage process - email katy@corleycycles.com and register on the link below:

Be a Wahooligan on the 14th October

We will be joined by the team from Wahoo on the 14th October to run a club ride with their riders to showcase their on-bike GPS enabled ELEMNT computers.
We will have 20 demo ELEMNT units available on the day with a pre-loaded route for the riders to follow.
The team from Wahoo will be on hand to answer questions and demonstrate the capabilities of the technology rich products.

I'll second that Upper Stowe, as long as you like

Rolling hills he said
Great to ride with everyone today - looks like we just missed the rain

That's what I do to get a garmin course into Strava. There is an extra step as you have to upload the gpx into Strava as a manual activity - save it as a course and then delete the activity.

Works for me - I needed to duplicate your route to add it to my routes if that makes sense

@Phil do you want to edit my steps so it makes sense to you? Then we should make it a sticky somewhere.

You did well to get as far as you did ...

Step-by-step guide to downloading a gpx file and saving as a course to your Garmin Connect account. - Please note this method works for me on my Mac, labels may be different on PC

Step 1: Right click and save the GPX file to your desktop
Step 2: Goto http://www.gpsies.com and make yourself an account
Step 3: Upload the saved GPX file and convert it to GPX Track (I leave all other options in their default state) - the file should process and save to your downloads folder
Step 4: Login to connect.garmin.com and ‘import data’ via the cloud icon top right of the screen
Step 5: Drag and drop or Browse to your new GPX file (it will be in your downloads folder) - the GPX should load up and be displayed
Step 6: Click the ‘gear’ icon and ‘save as course’ (I imagine you can also ’send to device’)
Step 7: Remember to make it public if you want to share with other members

Here’s the link to the course on Garmin Connect

let me know how you get on

I can help - bear with me and I’ll right a tutorial with the steps required

Cafe looks nice - good to go to a new one

I’m in.
Don’t fancy BSB @ Silverstone in the rain all afternoon
Much better to be on the bike!

Second that - about time I had some club kit

Great ride today, well done all for 15mph average with all the climbing before the stop at Bugbrook.
Great also to see the sun as we got back to Maids Morten, looks quite pleasant out their now.

Hi Paul,
Makes sense. - I've downloaded a ride sheet, but do let me know any other protocol I should be following

Pharbord@mac.com

Should be public now - thank you john

Sorry, was typing my route when you posted this.
Just working out how to get my Strava route onto Garmin

HTTPS://connect.garmin.com/modern/course/16302790

OK, I propose a trip out to the community cafe at Bugbrook
70k rolling
We will take the reverse route from last time
Up Stowe Avenue, passed Silverstone, up to Abthorpe, through Blakesley, onto Litchborough, over the A5 to Bugbrook and Cafe stop.
Then to Gayton, Blisworth, Shutlanger, back over the A5, Paulerspury, Wicken, and home through Leckhamstead and Maids Morten.

I make this about 2.40 on the road

Let me know your favourite cafe stop, and I'll sort a route. Aiming for 15-16mph as usual for midweek, but very happy to adapt.

Weather looks bright and warm 16c, breezy 13-15 from the NW
